search_wiki_pages
AI agents call search_wiki_pages to retrieve information from WikiJS MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs a search across wiki pages, which is a read-only operation that retrieves data without modifying or deleting content. No side effects are expected from searching. Even if an AI agent misuses this tool, it can only query existing data, posing minimal security risk (low severity).
From the tool's definition Tool name 'search_wiki_pages' combined with server context describing 'search' operations and sibling tools like 'get_page_by_path' and 'find_related_pages' that are clearly retrieval operations.
